FAQ

Short answers to the questions we get most.

Do I need to own any skins?

No. Markets are synthetic — you trade price exposure, not items. Nothing moves in or out of a Steam inventory.

Is this real money right now?

Beta runs on paper balances ($10,000 simulated USDC) against live market prices. Real USDC deposits arrive with Phase 2 — see Roadmap.

Where do prices come from?

From live skin-marketplace data, normalized and outlier-filtered. Details on the Price Oracle page.

What is the maximum leverage?

100x, with isolated margin and a 0.5% maintenance requirement. See Leverage & Margin.

How do I sign in?

Twitter, Google, or a Phantom Solana wallet — via Privy's standard login.

Can a skin market be delisted?

If a skin loses marketplace liquidity, the market can be closed for new positions; open positions settle normally before removal.

Which wear tier does a market track?

Each market tracks one canonical variant (e.g. Dragon Lore Field-Tested, Karambit Fade Factory New) listed on the Markets page.
